The President of the University of Babylon, Professor Dr. Ameen Ajeel Al-Yasiri, chaired an extended meeting with the deans of the medical group colleges to develop short-, medium-, and long-term plans that include updating the curriculum, organizing examinations, and improving infrastructure.

For his part, the University President emphasized that the medical group colleges should be the best among Iraqi universities in terms of laboratories, equipment, infrastructure, and furnishing labs with the most essential modern supplies. He also praised the efforts of the Babylon College of Medicine for obtaining international academic accreditation and for publishing the Babylon Medical Journal, which is indexed in Scopus. He reaffirmed his full support for the medical colleges in general—and for Babylon College of Medicine in particular—by providing them with all necessary medical equipment that aligns with the electronic advancements in medical education and their commitment to implementing all examinations electronically.
He urged the deans to apply for specialized programmatic accreditation by preparing their colleges to meet the required criteria and standards for each specialty.
